Thanks! The basement garage has 50 globes and I have 40 globes in barn. I have another 8-10 globes not on shelves. I am staying at the 100 globe mark and will just upgrade from here on out. Saying that I will most likely end up building another shelf and displaying more. Haha
Looking for anything from Hoosier Pete, Platolene 500 and Red Bird.

Yes, but they sounded bad compared to today’s set up. Haha
Had a guy here in town come and fine tune it... he’s 78 years old and hard to find anyone to work on them anymore.

Nice idea mounting brackets inside studs. I like the clean look.

Very nice! Something to aspire to. Just obtained my first original old Deep Rock glass globe.

I'm interested in Deep Rock and Kerr McGee items especially if they are marked B.A. Tramp Oil

Quite the difference from your old place! I still remember visiting you there. If I remember right, you had that car back then but it was in a lot rougher shape!

Built a table and used the same material as my globe shelves.
